Hot News: Princess Kate’s surprising gesture with teenage cancer patient astonishes fans!
The Princess of Wales recently finished her cancer treatment
Kate, Princess of Wales, met a cancer patient this week and the heartwarming meeting was documented on social media.
Kate herself has recently finished chemotherapy for a disclosed form of cancer. She is slowly getting back to public appearance and duties.
This week, Kate, 42, and husband Prince William, 42, met Liz Hatton, 16. Liz, a budding photographer, was told by doctors earlier this year that she had between six months and three years to live.

Liz was invited by Prince William to photograph investiture recipients receiving their honours on Wednesday.
She photographed cyclist Sir Mark Cavendish being knighted by the Prince of Wales.
Liz was diagnosed with desmoplastic small round cell tumour in January. After her diagnosis, she shared a “bucket list” online of all the things she wanted to capture by the camera.
The list included her wish to take pictures of a music festival, a fashion shoot and the rehearsal of a major musical.
Liz has clearly inspired the Prince and Princess of Wales. They posted a couple of pictures to their Instagram account on Wednesday.
The first showed Kate embracing Liz in a warm hug, and the other saw the royal couple smiling alongside Liz and her family.
Such lovely, genuine and kind people.
They wrote: “A pleasure to meet with Liz at Windsor today. A talented young photographer whose creativity and strength has inspired us both. Thank you for sharing your photos and story with us. W&C.”
Meanwhile, Liz wrote on her Instagram Story: “Such lovely, genuine and kind people. I’m over the moon that my family and I had this experience.”

Someone else added: “The first picture has my heart. It’s so great to see the Princess of Wales back!”
Another said: “It’s lovely to see the genuine Princess Kate. Sending lots of hugs her way from me!”
Meanwhile, Kensington Palace shared some details on the meeting. They said: “Following the investiture, both the Prince and Princess of Wales met Liz privately with her family to hear about her day and journey.”
Kate finishes chemotherapy
In September, Kate announced she had completed her chemotherapy treatment. She had shared her cancer diagnosis publicly in March.
She said: “The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family.
“This time has above all reminded William and me to reflect and be grateful for the simple yet important things in life, which so many of us often take for granted. Of simply loving and being loved.
“Doing what I can to stay cancer free is now my focus.”
